Hailey | High School Senior 2024 | Bowie High School

Meet beautiful Hailey. She showed up ready to do her senior photo shoot and is a natural in front of the camera. As I edited her photos, I realized that she reminds me of young Christie Brinkley. She brought the simple white dress, a bodysuit with the sage green skirt, swapped out the skirt for jeans and added her school jacket for a few shots. We thank Creekside for allowing us to use their gorgeous backyard area and make some memorable photographs for Hailey. Kick back, turn up the volume and enjoy Hailey video.

Texas A&M Senior Shoot | Riley | College Station, TX

Meet Riley! She's the best friend and sorority sister to Emily who is in the previous post. We had a double photo shoot day where I photographed both Riley and Emily seperately and together for a few shots. I'm going to guess that these two could also be "double trouble" when they're together. ;) What a couple of cuties! Riley arrived in her cute white dress for the Admin Building shoot then changed into an electric pink dress for the shots at the Bell Tower and wrapped up the fountain photos wearing her Aggie jersey, cut off shorts, white boots and cowgirl hat. We can't forget the HAAAAAAATTTT! I had so much fun photographing these two and am super excited to see what their future holds. I think the words of this song are perfect for a college graduate who is about to embark on a new journey...Live your life with arms wide open Today is where your book begins The rest is still unwritten. Grab your latte and biscotti and kick back and enjoy Riley's video. P.s. I do not own the rights to this song.

Texas A&M Senior Shoot | Emily | College Station, TX

A few weeks ago, I made another trip to College Station to photograph two A&M seniors, best friends and sorority sisters Emily and Riley. We had fun hitting all the traditional "hot spot" locations that the Aggie seniors go to for their photos. First stop, was the infamous Admin Building that you have to wait in line for your turn down one of the wings. Since this wasn't my first rodeo, I knew to have Letty (Emily's mom) stand in line for us to hold our spot. There's a process within a process...man, this school really does run deep with their traditions. :) Even though there were only about 6 people in front of us in the line, it took over an hour until it was our turn. In the meantime, I was able to photograph Emily and Riley all around the stairs and grassy areas while Letty made friends in line waiting. LOL! Second stop was the Bell Tower and the last stop was where they all get to cut loose and pop champagne in THE FOUNTAIN! These shots are SO fun and scream excited about graduation! Emily had to incorporate a few photos with her adorable dog, Bentley. He's just so cute with his A&M jersey and grad cap on that I can hardly stand it! Grap a Dos XX (or two...ahem Em I'm talking to you) and some nachos and kick back and watch Em's sweet video. P.s. I do not own the rights to this song. P.s.s. For those of you who might be worried, Bently the dog did NOT drink any beer!

Austin Lifestyle Senior 2023 Shoot | Lauren | Austin High School

Oh my goodness! We were a bit stressed about the weather before this shoot. I swear I'm a full time photographer and part time meterologist...see Mom I am using my Geography degree from college! My Gigi always wanted me to be a weather woman on TV. I could've given Ginger on GMA a run for her money. :) We had been in touch a few times prior to the shoot checking the hourly weather and praying that the rain would clear. Aaaaannnnddd, at 4pm that day it was still iffy but the rain chances were only 6% so I was feeling good about that! By 6pm, it was just gorgeous out and made for a beautiful sky for the shoot. Lauren wore some light blue shorts and a vibrant blue dress for a couple of her outfits and the blue just pops off of the green grass and trees. Lauren is wrapping up her time at Austin High and moving on to Texas A & M in the fall to study really hard stuff! Haha! Not only is she beautiful but she's super smart, too. Grab an iced tea and a brownie and kick back and enjoy her video. P.s. I do not own the rights to this song.

Austin, Texas Senior 2023 Shoot | Patrick | Bowie High School

We've got ourselves another good one here...A Boy and his Truck Part 2. I headed back out to the country and made my way down that dirt road again for another senior shoot. Patrick showed up with his jeans, boots and a few cowboy hats and also wanted to make sure he got some senior photos with his pickup truck. We walked around the property using the beautiful green pastures, broken fences and utilized all the great wood and stone textures near by. The best was when we ended the shoot down on the dirt road we made our way over by the horses. This white horse came over to say hi and once Patrick started feeding her some grass she wasn't going anywhere. If you look closely in the photos with the white horse, I'm not sure if she was posing for me with her over the shoulder look or if she was just giving me a side eye to stop taking photos. Either way, the sun was setting and the sky was a beautiful golden pink and it made for a great setting to finish up Patrick's shoot. Grab yourself a cold beverage and some cheetos and kick back and watch Patrick's video. P.s. I do not own the rights to this song.

Austin, Texas Senior Shoot | Stephen | Vista Ridge High School

These next few shoots are all about a boy and his truck so get ready. Being a small town girl myself, there's nothing more that I love than a good ol' country boy, dirt roads and pick up trucks so I was so excited to photograph these guys. Stephen pulled up the dirt road ever so slowly in his freshly washed and shined red pickup truck in hopes to keep it clean through those few mud puddles that he had to pass through. Once him and his mom arrived, we went over his wardrobe which consisted of 3 different pearl snap shirts (yeehaw!) and made our photo shoot game plan. The rustic wood building, open fields with broken fence posts and old oak trees dotting the property made for a great backdrop for his senior shoot. After the sun started to settle down, he pulled his truck down the dirt road and parked it just where you could see the horses eating grass in the background. Stephen has worked very hard on fixing up this truck, put alot of blood, sweat and tears into and is very proud of all his hard work (as he should be!). It was the perfect prop to use in his senior photos and he'll always be able to look back on these photos to cherish this time in his life. Grab yourself a beverage and kick back and enjoy Stephen's video. P.s. I do not own the rights to this song.

Austin High School Senior 2023 Shoot | Brady | Bowie High School

I'm rockin' and rollin' over here at BNP photographing all these great high school seniors that are about to graduate! These guys are showing up with the best attitude and are so photogenic. Brady did not disappoint, either. We met downtown at Butler Park and utilized all the great pockets of the park for his senior photos. We ended on the Lamar Street Bridge with all the after work walkers and joggers passing by. These ended up being my fav...where he has his Razorbacks shirt on and the Bowie graduation gown thrown on loosely over his clothes and he topped it off with his Salt Lick ball cap and the Austin skyline in the background. They just make for some great senior photos. One day, he'll look back on these and be amazed at how much that Austin skyline has changed since 2023! Grab an ice cold beverage and snack and kick back and watch Brady's video.
